    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

One of these wires is not like the other...

I finally had some time today to finish my carb boot/air box project (it's been over a month!) and after i started the GS up again i noticed a wire was loose.

It's a thick black wire, with braided sheathing, and a plastic female end that is similar to a USB interface. Can you picture that? if not i can take a pic in the morning.

Where does i go? It's been so long since i started my project i forget.

(sorry for another wire related thread)
 
Hi,

Is it connected at one end? Where? A picture might help. The description isn't ringing a bell. :o


Thank you for your indulgence,

No, the fuel gauge had black and yellow wires. That's hooked up and works fine.

I didn't have a chance to snap any photos this morning, sorry!
 
Is that boxy end open on one of its sides? That sounds like the lead that snaps on the top of my oil pressure sender. See part #43 in the crankcase fiche for your bike. If that's not it, I'd need to see a picture.

I bet that's it. It's about the right length to reach there...
 
Hi,

I know I've got a better picture around somewhere, but I can't find it right now.

Anyway, look behind the cylinders, under the carbs, next to the clutch cable, and you will see the connector for the oil pressure send unit.

Hi,

Here's a little better shot. The oil pressure send unit and its connector are below the cam chain tensioner.
